KEY TOPICS

Show them (show dem – make the circle bigger) – Euphonik ft Fresh remix.[1] Steli Efti : All right, so next thing that didn’t work out, this was a bigger project but something that almost nobody that knows me Only my inner circle of friends know that this ever existed. [2]

Really really loved doing this interview on Bloomberg, diving deeper into why I think Facebook is such a good, valuable buy and my thoughts on investing in it & talking about why I think Jeff Bezos & Amazon are going to be bigger than imaginable. [3]

I think the logical next step is to get Canada to come to that table and make the final negotiations and the final agreement to complete the circle of the North American trade. [4] If you’re not optimistic and motivated, you need to find a new circle of friends and start becoming very in tune with yourself. [3]

When life is hectic or you need a break from the news, feel better and live bigger with classical music.[5] Apple Inc. is preparing to supersize its iPhone lineup, aiming to drive profit in its biggest business despite stagnant unit sales while also fueling growth for apps and services that are more appealing to users with bigger screens. [6]

While some apps may be able to perform direct downloads of podcast episodes from the internet to the Watch, many will rely on transferring audio files from the iPhone to the Watch to ensure compatible formats, consistent timestamps, small files, or audio-processing features. [7] The download link will display to the right of the Audio Block. [8] To allow visitors to download the track, check Show Download Link in the Design tab. [8]

POSSIBLY USEFUL

MP3 CDs may offer the advantage of being able to store more music than a regular audio CD, but there are disadvantages.[9] When you deviate from the MP3 format, there’s no guarantee that CD and DVD consumer electronic devices, such as some CD players, can play all the audio formats stored on your custom disc. [9] Although many modern hardware devices like DVD and CD players support the MP3 format (along with WMA, AAC, and others), some hardware equipment only supports the playback of uncompressed audio CDs. [9] If you read the news, you may think the MP3 file format was recently officially “killed” somehow, and any remaining MP3 holdouts should all move to AAC now. [7] Podcasters need to distribute a single file type that’s playable on the most players and devices possible, and though AAC is widely supported today, it’s still not as widely supported as MP3. [7] For new music, get AAC if you want, but it’s not worth spending any time replacing MP3s you already have. [7] AAC and other newer audio codecs can produce better quality than MP3, but the difference is only significant at low bitrates. [7] Suppose a podcast debates switching from 64 kbps MP3 to 48 kbps AAC. That would only save about 7 MB per hour of content, which isn’t a meaningful amount of data for most people anymore (especially for podcasts, which are typically background-downloaded on Wi-Fi). [7] Podcasters overwhelmingly choose MP3: among the 50 million podcast episodes in Overcast’s database, 92% are MP3, and within the most popular 500 podcasts, 99% are MP3. [7] While there’s a debate to be had in a moment about whether MP3 should still be used today, Fraunhofer’s announcement has nothing to do with that, and is simply the ending of its patent-licensing program (because the patents have all expired) and a suggestion that we move to a newer, still-patented format. [7] MP3 is no less alive now than it was last month or will be next year the last known MP3 patents have simply expired. [7]

MP3 is very old, but it’s the same age as JPEG, which has also long since been surpassed in quality by newer formats. [7] At about 128 kbps or greater, the differences between MP3 and other codecs are very unlikely to be noticed, so it isn’t meaningfully better for personal music collections. [7] The sound quality of an MP3 CD is inferior to the sound from a typical music CD. You might not be able to hear it, but it’s technically true because MP3s are stored in a lossy format, whereas audio CDs contain uncompressed, lossless audio. [9] You can minimize this problem by making the MP3 CD with only MP3 and other well-supported formats, like WAV and AAC. [9] Although MP3 CD suggests that only MP3 files can be stored to conform to this type of CD, that isn’t the case. [9] An MP3 CD is a compact disc (CD) with audio files (usually MP3s ) stored on it. [9] Audio files on an MP3 CD are stored like any other file on a regular CD-ROM, using the Yellow Book CD standard. [9]

Some MP3 CD creators in that list above have the dual purpose of being a CD ripper, but dedicated music CD extractors work, too. [9] You might make an MP3 CD if you plan to listen to your music in a CD player, or if you want to back up your favorite music. [9] Building your own MP3 CD is as easy as burning the MP3 files to a disc, which you can do with a variety of software programs. [9] Music stored in the MP3 format is encoded in a compressed format and takes up a lot less storage space than non-compressed files. [9] Tip : If your music files aren’t in the MP3 format, you can convert them with an audio file converter. [9]

MP3 CDs are also less compatible with consumer electronic devices than purchased audio CDs are. [9] The quality of audio CDs is much higher than that of compressed MP3s. [9]

An MP3 CD, on the other hand, lets you extend this maximum playing time significantly, and store many more songs. [9]
